Involved from the beginning in the clubs and societies of my school, I found natural to take part and finally got to lead the local antenna of the graduates association of my school. The role is a real challenge since it consists in creating events that stimulate and consolidate the network with no budget and poor support from the head office.
Last event organized was a networking party on a boat in collaboration with 5 other schools. http://www.sudconnexion.com
Next events in the pipe: a series of conferences about private assets management and the creation of business clubs.
